EC2, PHP7.4, php-zip

Question

Hi all.  Standard EC2 instance.   
  
sudo yum update  
sudo amazon-linux-extras install php7.4  
sudo yum install php-mbstring php-dom php-pgsql - all good.  
sudo yum install php-zip  
  
why does php-zip always want to install "php-common-5.4.16-46.amzn2.0.2.x86_64"  ??  
  
any suggestions appreciated.

Answer

Be great to have repos updated to not have to do the above cheers.  Php 7.4

Answer

It seems that the repository has been fixed.  
The zip extension was bundled with php-cli-7.4.4-1.amzn2.

```
$ docker pull amazonlinux2:latest
$ docker run -it --rm amazonlinux:latest /bin/bash -c 'amazon-linux-extras install -y php7.4 && php -i'

...
zip

Zip => enabled
Zip version => 1.15.6
Libzip headers version => 1.3.2
Libzip library version => 1.3.2
...
```
